Overview
The Post Prandial Blood Sugar (PPBS) test measures your blood sugar level two hours after you eat a meal. This helps assess how your body processes glucose, a type of sugar that's your body's main energy source. Normally, your body releases insulin after eating to usher glucose from the blood into your cells. The PPBS test checks if your body is effectively managing this process. Doctors use this test to diagnose diabetes, and prediabetes and monitor blood sugar control in people already diagnosed with diabetes.
